I improved the batch file (forgot somehow that a full disassembly was not needed for the donor).


you mean you read what i had done in mine like 3+ months ago?
and ive already made a gui version too =/

im failing to see why you are reinventing the wheel


but while you are... why dont you just do this


CODEndstool -x donate.nds -7 arm7.bin
ndstool -x swap.nds -9 arm9.bin -y9 y9.bin -y7 y7.bin -d data -y overlay -t banner.bin -h header.bin
ndstool -c finished.nds -9 arm9.bin -7 arm7.bin -y9 y9.bin -y7 y7.bin -d data -y overlay -t banner.bin -h header.bin

rmdir data\ /S/Q
rmdir overlay\ /S/Q
del *.bin

you dont need to extract the arm7.bin (again, already in my version) in the second rom so you wont overwrite it, then your copy command isnt required either.

I had no idea I was "ripping off" people, this was just born of a conversation on IRC with some people messing around with DSLazy/DSbuff and me then tweaking some of my ndstool batch files to do it instead.

As for the GUI I just wanted to practice autoit a bit as I was a bit rusty on it.

Your gui is a bit pointless as you still have to put the NDS in the same directory so your better off with the batch.

I made one that once finished renames the NDS to the original NDS name saving any hassle of typing all you do is put the orginal in game folder and patch easy also if there is no arm7.bin then it asks you to put a nds of your choice in the donor folder created for that purpose.
